Excellent if read properly by rev dr killed by amazon  5 Stars
October 28, 2008
This was an excellent text. To get the most out of this text I would suggest the following:
Always begin reading at a specific time (I choose 7:48pm on every other Mon., Thur, and Sun. starting at on the 1 Monday of each month).
Always read for a specific length of time. I read for 48 minutes at each sitting.
Always read in the same location. I choose my brown recliner in my living room.
Always wear the same shirt when reading. I choose my red flannel.
Always touch the bookshelf 7 times before removing the text and again 7 times when returning the text to the bookshelf
And most of all...RELAX & ENJOY!!!!

Excellent treatment manual for a therapist by Ben Orooji 5 Stars
February 04, 2008
I'm currently a doctoral student in a clinical psychology program and had the opportunity to use this manual with one of my clients. It provides an excellent Psychoeducation section with clear rationale for treatment. A simple and clear treatment guideline is described and sufficient examples are provided. Handouts are good and further drive-in the rationale for treatment. Treatment is essentially Exposure and Relapse Prevention with a primarily behavioral slant, but there is a well-developed cognitive component as well. Homework forms are useful, informative, and easy for the client to follow.
My one complaint is that relevant research literature is not cited, or noted for further information. Most people looking at this manual probably already have that information anyway though.
